Stay-Tuned:Ask your child what he or she is studying, and look in their take-home folder every night. The take-home folder is where you will find the newsletter and notes that are sent home, as well as any homework that needs to be completed. Our monthly newsletter will help you keep up with important happenings in our classroom.

Ask Questions: If you have any concerns or are wondering why something is happening, please feel free to call or email me at any time. I welcome all concerns, ideas, and feedback that affect your child or our classroom. If something is not working, we are more than willing to talk.

Homework: You should expect that your child will have some type of homework everyday. You will always find the homework assignments written in their agendas that will be taken home daily along with the take-home folder. I encourage you to set up a scheduled time with your child for homework each day. Students should be able to do most assignments independently, but do help if it is completely necessary. If you notice that your child is not able to do an assignment on his or her own, please send a note or send an email about the assignment so I am aware.

Water/Birthdays: We do have a water fountain in our classroom, but it would be a good idea to have your child bring in their own bottles of water to school everyday, preferably a reusable one! Please also give me a week heads up if your child is planning to bring a treat for his or her birthday so we can clear it with the school nurse.

Arrival/Dismissal Time:School begins at 8:20AM and doors will be open for the children to enter on 28th street at 8:10AM. We will be outside on the playground on 28th street for dismissal at 2:40PM. Please pick up your child at this time! If your child is not picked up in a timely manner, they will be sent to the office to wait there for your arrival.

*If your child is being picked up by someone OTHER THAN A PARENT, please send in a note so I am aware.*If you child is being PICKED UP EARLY from school, please send me a note as well.
